"You must not be careless on your journey."
Haitang Duoduo smiled slightly and said:
"I understand, Master!"
Then, Haitang Duoduo didn't linger and got up and left in a carefree manner.
In her opinion, so what if Sean has the strength of a ninth-rank expert?
People are getting old!
She will be able to easily kill Sean and complete her teacher Ku He's mission.
After Haitang Duoduo left, Kuhe glanced at him and pondered:
"Sean."
“I’m happy for you that you’ve been released from the dungeon of the Overwatch Council.”
"It's just a pity... you know far too many secrets."
"I won't have a clear conscience if I don't kill you!"
As he said this, a chilling murderous intent flashed in Ku He's eyes.
What I just told Haitang Duoduo was just an excuse.
He really wanted to get rid of Sean because Sean knew many secrets.
For example, the location of the temple.
In addition, he and Sean encountered extremely cold weather on their way to find the temple.
Dark loneliness, food shortage.
In the end, only he and Sean remained in the thousand-person team.
In order to survive, Kuhe went so far as to eat human flesh.
He, a grandmaster and the guardian deity of Northern Qi, actually ate human flesh!
If this gets out, it will ruin his reputation.
More importantly, the temple's secrets must not be exposed!
It was precisely because of these reasons that Ku He did not want Xiao En to return to Northern Qi alive.
However, he is a Grandmaster, and if he were to take direct action, it would inevitably give others grounds for criticism. Sending Haitang Duoduo to kill Sean is the most appropriate course of action!

Chapter 100: Chen Qingfeng flicks his finger, his magic shakes mountains and rivers! Fan Xian is shocked! One man can hold off a thousand troops!
The South Korean Mission.
After serving Xiao En, Wang Qinian went straight to Fan Xian.
"Master Xiao Fan."
"Sean... said he wants to see you."
Fan Xian was taken aback.
"see me?"
"Isn't Chen Qingfeng the person in charge of this mission?"
"What does this old fellow want with me?"
Fan Xian was somewhat puzzled.
He first met Sean at the entrance of the Overwatch Council.
At that time, he sensed that Sean seemed to harbor a great deal of murderous intent towards him and Chen Qingfeng.
They even told them to be careful along the way.
Wang Qinian shook his head and said:
"If Lord Fan does not wish to see him, he is free to refuse."
Fan Xian pursed his lips helplessly: "Fine, I'll go see him anyway!"
With that, Fan Xian got up and walked toward the second carriage where Xiao En was.
Seeing this, Wang Qinian quickly reminded him:
"Master Xiao Fan."
"A sick tiger is still a tiger!"
"Although Sean has been imprisoned by the Overwatch Council for many years, he is not as good as he used to be."
"But no matter what, he was once a super strong expert of the ninth rank."
"What if our lord is captured by him and used to blackmail our delegation?"
Fan Xian smiled slightly and replied:
"Do not worry!"
"Sean may be old, but he's not stupid."
"We are here with good intentions to send him back to Northern Qi."
"If he dares to attack me, wouldn't he be courting death?"
After saying this, Fan Xian took some water and snacks, then got up and went to Xiao En's carriage.
"Mr. Xiao."
"You must be tired from your long journey, let's have some food and water first!"
Upon hearing Fan Xian speak, Xiao En slowly opened his eyes, a fleeting glint of cold light flashing in them.
He then took the water bottle from Fan Xian and took a small sip.
"Wang Qinian said that Mr. Xiao wants to see me?"
"What brings you here?"
Sean put down the kettle, not in a hurry to speak, his gaze fixed on Fan Xian.
As he looked at it, he suddenly asked:
"You...you are Ye Qingmei's son?"
Fan Xian was startled when he heard Xiao En's question.
I don't understand how Sean figured it out.
Although Fan Xian did not answer, Xiao En, as the former intelligence chief of Northern Wei, naturally saw that his guess was correct.
After a brief silence, Sean continued:
"You and your brother are both remarkable."
“Especially your brother, even I can’t see through him.”
This time, Fan Xian's shock was even greater.
Sean not only knew that he was Ye Qingmei's son, but also that Chen Qingfeng was his brother.
"Mr. Xiao."
"How...how do you know all this?"
Sean gave a cold laugh, offering no reply to Fan Xian, but instead continued to ask:
"Lord Fan."
Do you know why Emperor Qing was willing to let me go back?
Fan Xian shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Sean glanced at him slightly and smiled, saying, "Because of a secret."
"Secret? What secret?"
Fan Xian pressed for an answer.
Unfortunately, Sean had no intention of explaining things to him in detail.
Then, silence fell inside the carriage.
After a moment of silence, Sean asked again:
"correct."
Do you know how your mother, Ye Qingmei, died?
Upon hearing this, Fan Xian's expression became even more serious, wondering if Xiao En knew too much.
Seeing Fan Xian remain silent, Xiao En smiled meaningfully and said again:
"Your brother should know the truth."
After saying this, Sean closed his eyes and began to rest without waiting for Fan Xian to speak.
Fan Xian frowned, his thoughts in turmoil.
Earlier, he had already learned a lot from Wu Zhu.
For example, she also has an older brother, Chen Qingfeng, who was responsible for the massacre at Taiping Villa back then, which was carried out by the Empress and her men against Ye Qingmei.
"Listen to what Sean just said."
Isn't this the truth?
"Is there an even bigger conspiracy behind my mother's death?"
"Sean said...my brother knows the truth, so...we should ask him?"
For a moment, Fan Xian was filled with doubts.
Although he knew that Chen Qingfeng was his brother, he did not choose to acknowledge him.
"Lets see!"
